We all have been in a tizzy over the anti-Obama books that have been quickly cranked out following the end of the Democratic primaries where he unexpectedly beat Hillary Clinton. However, one pleasant side effect is that it caused the poor little right wing hate machine to lsoe their investments preparing a series of anti-Hillary smears, which they have now taken to showing for free. I guess they wasted their investments and will now be distributing the DVDs as frisbees at the RNC national convention. I can't help but wonder whether there were plans in the works to show one of the movies on ABC the way ABC showed the Path to 9/11 hit piece in September 2006.

In Hollywood docudramas, when the phrase "miscarriage of justice" is employed, it usually applies to the film's subject, not its creators.
But a new documentary called "Blocking the Path to 9/11," to be given a screening tonight, makes the case that former President Bill Clinton and Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton have pressured television and studio executives into quashing the DVD release of ABC's 2006 miniseries “The Path to 9/11." The privately financed documentary argues that the Clintons, who decried the original miniseries as a right-wing hatchet job, are out to salvage their political influence and legacy at the expense of free expression.
The documentary, which will be shown to a sold-out audience at the Skirball Center, was produced by former KFI-AM talk show host John Ziegler and Citizens United, a Washington, D.C.-based conservative political group that emphasizes the importance of strong families, limited government and free enterprise.

"Hillary: The Movie" premièred Jan. 16 in Washington. It is being screened in select cities, including showings in San Diego on Feb. 1 and Santa Ana, Calif., on Feb. 2. But because of its hard edge and timely political subject matter, the Federal Election Commission has put restrictions on three broadcast advertisements promoting the movie. Under campaign-finance regulations, ads for the film must include a political disclaimer and the film's financial backers must be disclosed to the FEC and the public.
